We work with wellness departments and committees within corporations, educational institutions and other organisations to help achieve their goals of improving employee morale through group training, reducing health care related costs, and promoting general health and well-being of their employees. We love how a running program can spark team spirit and workplace relationships, and think it’s admirable that so many employers are implementing these types of programs for their employees.

Whether your organisation is interested in a one-time or series of running-related presentations or a comprehensive training program, we are happy to tailor our services to your needs.

We design program with respect to level and availability of employees. Typically, training programs are 8-10 weeks in duration and target a specific goal race. Like all of our coaching, programs are based on the principles of gradual progress, injury prevention and personalised attention, and can be tailored to both beginner and advanced runners, with beginners building endurance and more experienced runners focusing on speed development.

Participants are provided with:

– A comprehensive training calendar, including running and suggested cross-training;

– One coached group run per week, led from the client’s location on a day/time that is mutually convenient. Session length ranges in time from 45 minutes to approximately 1 hour depending on the distance of the scheduled run, and includes warm-up and stretching. Where it is difficult to schedule a convenient time for group runs, some organisations prefer virtual coaching, where we are “on call” via phone and email for runners following the program;

– Weekly communication from coaches provides accountability and availability to answer individual questions and help modify the schedule to fit individual needs;

Employers are encouraged to select a goal race for participants to complete at the end of the program; corporate clients often choose a race so that employees can participate as a team. We can help the organisation and/or individual runners in selecting a goal race, and can help the organisation to set up a corporate running group.
